let the plenum work begin! wbx upgrade...

Now i have the parts, thanks to, Sarlin race team, KKD, Marko Paajanen,

 Kotten...and soon Mr. welder M. Lindgren.

Christmas's came early. ok, there's a lot to do, but at least the parts are here. :-)

BTW the manifold is just for mock-up. the real ones are at the garage.

 

karmann ghia turbo - update

 spring is around the corner....so its time to fix the problems of the ghia. With Jimi (son) we've started to fix the leaks in the intake manifold ...its not that easy, but we are getting somewhere. too many hoses, no space, too many wires too. and i do have some problems with the fingers hurting a lot... BUT anyways, i hope to get the left side in shape tonight.

No boost?

Lets find out, if the compressor side of the engine is leaking. i do need a smoke machine too later, but this could tell much of the system with a cheap price. i ordered these from amazon.com, the company seems to be TURBO BOOST / Leak testers, made in USA.

So now i have new oil in the engine, new filter, these leak testers, and i have to check the rockers, if there would be something strange there... maybe something shows up?
